SUMMARY:INFO SESSION ON ICT-24: Service and data portability
DESCRIPTION:INFO SESSION ON ICT-24: Next Generation Internet – An Open Internet Initiative // Service and data portability\nThis Next Generation Internet (NGI) information session focuses on a) Research and Innovation Action\, subtopic: \nii-b) Service and data portability: this topic will address the challenge of personal data portability on the internet as foreseen under the GDPR[2] and the data porting and service provider switching as foreseen in the proposed free flow of non-personal data regulation[3]. The topic should cover the separation of data from the services provided to the end-users\, with a view to ensure seamless combination of internet services and frictionless switching. Attention should be paid to technological developments\, standardisation of personal profiles\, practical handling of data sets mixing personal and non-personal data\, operational and business models\, as well as techno-legal constraints and the simplification of end-user contracts and terms of use. \nFind all of the call details here. \nThe calls of the objective opened on 16 October 2018. \nSubmission deadline for proposals is 28 March 2019. \nYou can connect to the room at this link: https://ecwacs.webex.com/join/lmartinez-lafuente (Room ID 845 981 459). Once reached the virtual room\, you will have to join the audioconference so we can hear each other.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Media & Content Hyper-personalisation
DESCRIPTION:Webinar: Media & Content Hyper-personalisation\nWednesday 14.11.2018\, 15:00 CET\nThe European society is based on diversity and only by giving a broad and flexible response\, with the assistance of the hyper-personalization paradigm\, will this diversity be a resource and not a restriction. \nThe global trend towards the extreme differentiation of offerings in products and services cannot be foreign to the sector\, from the recommendation of content to the integration of the final consumer in the design processes. Hyper-personalization through very precise targeting not only ensures the best potential impact but in parallel increases the added value of products and services. \nHyper-personalization technology will allow the gap between providers’ business needs and consumers’ desires to be closed\, allowing consumers to enjoy an increasing range of products whilst service providers battle against the fragmentation of retailing and media across multiple channels and platforms. Appropriate control should be given to consumers to empower them to tailor and tune how hyper-personalization works to meet their needs. \nOne of the key challenges will be to give back the control of personal data to the end users. These data are key for hyper-personalisation but should be under the control of the end user instead of being managed by each service provider with a global inconsistency. \nJoin with Pierre-Yves Danet\, Orange\, to learn more about Media & Content Hyper-personalisation. \nParticipation in the webinar is free of charge\, but requires registration by 14 November 2018\, 12:00 CET (150 attendees).\nPlease register at: https://media-content-hyper-personalisation.eventbrite.co.uk \nBy registering you accept that your user name and any chat questions or comments you share in the webinar are publicly visible to other participants and that the webinar\, including these personal data\, is recorded; the recording is publicly shared on the NGI.eu website and Social Media.\nRegistered participants will receive an access link in the confirmation email. \n\nPierre-Yves DANET graduated from a high French engineer school EFREI\, and joined Orange (France Telecom) in 1992\, taking responsibility of a research group on ISDN. He set up a lab on Home Automation and then moved to the application server research domain. In 2005\, at the creation of the NEM European Technology platform\, he represented Orange at the steering board\, and was appointed vice-chair in charge of Strategy since 2007. In 2010\, he received the Senior grade of SEE (Société de l’Electricité\, de l’Electronique et des Technologies de l’Information et de la Communication). Since 2013\, he is in charge of collaborative research – Europe at Orange Labs. He is also the vice-chair of the FIWARE Mundus committee\, which has the objective to evangelise FIWARE outside Europe. He also leads the ETNO Research & Innovation group and represents Orange at the AIOTI. He has been recently appointed as one of the French contact points for the Next Generation Internet initiative. \nMore information about the NGI Expert Group.

SUMMARY:Hackathon: Next Generation Internet Data Sprint
DESCRIPTION:According to a legend\, the first attempt to send two letters by the Internet crashed the whole system. Almost 50 years later\, the internet has come to play an enormous role in our lives\, but we still face huge challenges: How to tackle Russian bots? How to scope with filter bubbles and echo chambers? Are platforms digital monopolists? \nThe DELab team\, together with partners Nesta (UK) and EURECAT (ES)\, participate in the EU ENGINEROOM project\, funded by the European Commission. As part of this work\, the project is developing a methodology based on cutting-edge data science methods\, which help us identify the latest trends and emerging technologies in the internet space\, as well as analyse the most pressing social issues the net faces today. \nWe would like to invite you to the Next Generation Internet Data Sprint to think about the future of Internet with us! \nThe Data Sprint will take place on 9-10 November at the Faculty of Economic Sciences. During the hackathon you will have the opportunity to cooperate with experienced data-scientists from the consortium (Nesta\, Eurecat\, Delab) and be among the first to get to experiment with our data sets and new methodologies – from doing text-mining analyse to building data visualisations\, using web data sources like Reddit\, Wikipedia\, Ars Technica or Reuters. \nWe will work in small groups of 3 to 4 students\, attractive awards are available for the best and most creative projects. This is also an opportunity to have some of your work showcased to the European Commission. For inspirations check out some of our preliminary results: https://ngi.delabapps.eu/. \nPractical information: \n* 9 – 10 November: We start on Friday 17:00 at WNE UW with intro to the assignments. The coding sprint will be from Saturday from 9:00 until 20:00. Pizza and energetic drinks will be provided to boost creativity. \n* Event’s website: http://www.delab.uw.edu.pl/pl/ngi_hackathon/ \n* Do not feel like a master of coding? Nothing lost\, we invite everyone with basis of Python (Python 3 is the optimal tool for the hackathon)\, R or Tableau. If you have no experience in coding\, but interested in social challenges of technology\, your contribution will be highly valued as well. \n* We reserve the right to close registration after reaching the limit of 40 students. In the case of a high number of applications\, admissions will be decided based on the results of the short survey during registration. \n* Best teams will receive awards! \nRegister now! https://goo.gl/forms/ucEfNxMmuqal2Bf32

SUMMARY:NGI SALON @ WEB SUMMIT LISBON
DESCRIPTION:You have ten years to save the Planet – A Millennials’ narrative for the Next Generation Internet\nNGI Salon @ Web Summit Lisbon\nSocial Innovation Village delegation night\nDate: 7th November 2018 | 18:00-19:30\nLocation: Casa do Impacto \nModerators:\nMarta Arniani (futuribile / curating futures)\nJennifer Veldman (DataWatchers) \n  \nMillennials form the generation that was born in an analog world and are the early adopters of the digital one. They have experienced at a young age the innocent and empowering era of the internet\, an age of knowledge distribution and new opportunities arising with the mass diffusion of the web. An era of supposedly endless natural resources. The Internet and the digital revolution bring immensely powerful tools\, yet their effects on society and the Planet – were mostly unanticipated: for most of their lifespan they have just been considered useful tools and economy drivers. In truth\, tools are still in early adoption years. The same as when the car went through years of modulation (creating new traffic rules\, installing airbags\, seat belts and so on). Ideas of how we use and should use online digital devices are only starting to be framed. If we want a digital future that reflects the needs of society and environment\, we need to think\, discuss and act NOW. We argue that society and environment are strongly intertwined\, as values of the first impact directly on the Planet. Climate is the stone guest at the innovation table. As much as the NGI advocates for a human centric vision against technology-centric efficiency paradigms\, we think this vision should be placed in the natural ecosystem\, the place we live in. \nMotivations\, hopes\, achievements: digging into solutions for major societal challenges\, this salon aims at rebuilding a Millennials narrative that focuses not on how the internet has gone wrong\, but how we believe it could be improved and contribute to a better society\, thriving in a rich natural ecosystem. It will engage with Millennials from the Web Summit Social Innovation Village and local social innovation networks who bear with them that positive and emancipatory outlook on technology that Millennials should be remembered for. \nInfo and inquires: Marta Arniani: marta (at) futuribile.org \n

SUMMARY:NGI @ RHODES FORUM 2018
DESCRIPTION:“DIGITAL FUTURE OF HUMANITY: IMPACT OF TECHNOLOGICAL PROGRESS ON ECONOMY\, CYBER SECURITY AND SOCIAL VALUES”\nThe globalizing world is characterized by progress of new technologies that have strong impact on jobs\, life conditions\, communication and security systems and ethical standards. Advancement within Internet of Things\, Blockchain\, Artificial Intelligence\, Big Data\, Fintech and Insurtech provide conditions for sustainable growth\, could grant open access to resources\, information and knowledge. But these developments could have profound implications for economic inequality and controversial effects on social life. \nNew technologies could be seen as providing substantial benefits\, but also pose risks for societies. More important than ever is a discourse on the balance between technical revolution\, new markets\, political systems\, emerging world order\, individual social benefits and data and identity protection. The panel will debate ways and competing concepts how to ensure reasonable and appropriate application of new technologies with participation of key stakeholders. \nMain points for Panel Discussion:\n\nDigital sovereignty technologies and cybersecurity in the era of cyberwars and global insecurity\nDebating trust in institutions such as banks\, governments\, global corporations\, charities and the media in the digital age by year 2030\nChallenges and opportunities of digitalization for political systems\nThe advancements of Artificial Intelligence and the future of societies\nExploring new kind of infrastructural violence: “Fake news\,” botnets\, internet abuse\, algorithmic content etc.\nHow is technological change impacting economic inequality and what can be done to use technology for the common good\nMobile communication: the consequences for concentration\, memories\, analytical and critical thinking\nThe digital divide and what chances have IT-underskilled people in the digital society\n\nModerators (TBC):\nMr Dimitris PSARRAKIS\, Economic & Monetary Policy Advisor\, European Parliament\nProf. Jens Wendland\, Head DOC RI Digitization Research \nhttps://doc-research.org/forum/ \n

SUMMARY:NGI KEYNOTE @ WORLD IOT EXPO 2018
DESCRIPTION:IoT\, NG and pragmatic cybernetics\nInternet of Things Expo\, Huihaiwan Intelligent Sensing Forum\nWuxi Xinhu Pullman\nThe main focus of the talk is in three areas: infrastructure\, services and entitlements. \nInfrastructure needs to be balanced between capabilities in the Cloud (data-lakes and AI) and edge (5G)\, between intricate and complex semi-autonomous to autonomous self-healing systems and local repairability to ensure urban resilience. This requires attention on two very different but equally important skilling strategies. \nInfrastructure support services.\nA service is any operation that supports either machines or people in their wellbeing and abilities to build a meaningful and cooperative existence. This thus entails the entire trajectory from BAN- to VWAN; BAN (body\, wearables)\, LAN (home\, smart services to the home)\, WAN (mobility in general from bike to connected car and plane)\, and VWAN (the very wide area network; the smart city). \nBlockchain as well as connectivity itself have become commodities and are thus services in this view. Services support everyday activities. Entitlements are new entities as synchronous and fixed identities cannot support services in a hybrid infrastructure. A balance between anonymity (in federated sets of identities that are tied to services such as shopping\, dating\, recovering from illness….) and accountability (in stable sets of relationships of behavior and activity) for processes\, machines\, products and people in wallets\, is vital to create popular support from all generations for a new type of governance. \nEntitlements support services.\nExtelligence\, a term by Ian Stewart and Jack Cohen\, a biologist and mathematician\, is “the cultural capital that is available to us in the form of external media (e.g. tribal legends\, folklore\, nursery rhymes\, books\, videotapes\, CD-ROMs\, etc.)” In an information-rich\, digitally connected world\, where much of the knowledge and tools that we make use of are outside our heads there will be a need to develop new communication ‘senses’ that allow us to manage and make use of the enormous amount of information we will be confronted by. This will lead to the development and adoption of new and different types of human-computer interfaces and different ways of communicating with technology. We know this as deep learning and machine learning; artificial intelligence. \nBut this is the superficial reading of extelligence. Ian Stewart and Jack Cohen\, “regard the ‘complicity’ of extelligence and intelligence as fundamental to the development of consciousness in evolutionary terms for both the species and the individual. ‘Complicity’ is a combination of complexity and simplicity\, and Cohen and Stewart use it to express the interdependent relationship between knowledge-inside-one’s-head and knowledge-outside-one’s-head that can be readily accessed.” (idem) \nhttp://en.wiotexpo.cn

SUMMARY:Graz Security Week
DESCRIPTION:NGI @ Graz Security Week\nSeptember 3-7\, 2018\nGet together for PhD students and industry representatives. Top-class speakers featuring for e.g. Bart Preneel – Challenges for Security and Privacy as well as Michael Schwarz – Red Team vs Blue Team: Memory Safety\, Exploitation\, and Countermeasures and many more. See the full program here. \nNGI will be represented with our own meet the project booth. \nSUMMER SCHOOL 2018\nWelcome to our second School on Security & Correctness in the Internet of Things 2018\, held from 3.-7. September. It is hosted by the research center “Dependable Internet of Things“\, located at Graz University of Technology. This school targets graduate students interested in security aspects of tomorrow’s IoT devices. \nCurrent advances in technology drive miniaturization and efficiency of computing devices\, opening a variety of novel use cases like autonomous transportation\, smart cities and health monitoring devices. However\, device malfunction could potentially threaten human welfare or even life. Malfunction might not only be caused by design errors but also by intentional impairment. As computing devices are supposed to have high and permanent network connectivity\, an attacker finding a vulnerability might easily target millions of devices at once. Moreover\, integration of computing devices in everyday items exposes them to a potentially hostile physical environment. \nA central requirement of tomorrow’s IoT is the ability to execute software dependably on all kinds of devices. IoT devices need to provide security in the presence of network attacks as well as against attackers having physical access to the device. \nDuring the five-day school\, participants will gain awareness of these IoT-related challenges. Introductory classes are supplemented by advanced courses in the area of system security\, cryptography as well as software and hardware side-channels. During spare time participants are invited to enjoy the city of Graz and attend organized events. \nCHES 2018\nTake the opportunity to extend your stay in Europe with a visit of CHES’18\, which immediately follows the school. More information is given under Venue. \nFind out more here. \n\nINDUSTRY TRACK\nThe Cluster Focus Group:Cyber Security & IoT proudly presents the two day Industry Track as part of the Graz Cyber Security Week in September 2018! \nTuesday Sept. 4th & Wednesday Sept. 5th at Alte Technik Graz. \nBeing colocated with TU Graz’s Cyber Security Summer School\, industry professionals and Europe’s brightest cyber security talents have the chance to participate side by side in a number of intriguing plenary sessions and workshops. \nThe industry track will contain a number of expert talks spanning from an Introduction to Cryptography\, Overview of System Level Security\, Cyber Crime\, Cloud Security\, GDPR (DSGVO) and of course Blockchain technologies and applications. \nFind out more here. \n \n

SUMMARY:NGI@FutureFest
DESCRIPTION:Join the Next Generation Internet initiative in London this weekend: on July 6 and 7 UK Innovation Foundation Nesta hosts its annual FutureFest festival\, which brings together over 4\,000 participants to think about challenges of the future\, both through talks and panels\, and through interactive installations. \nAs part of the NGI\, we have planned six dedicated talks covering different aspects of the internet\, from promoting diversity in tech\, building new internets from scratch to the rise of the alt-right\, featuring some of the most thought-provoking commentators on the internet today.  \nThe events won’t be livestreamed\, but podcasts and videos of each of the sessions will be posted online at a later date. If you want to be notified when these videos go up\, sign up for the NGI Research newsletter here to be the first in the know.  \nLearn everything about the panels and our exciting speakers here: \nThe geopolitics of Artificial Intelligence\nSpeakers: Evgeny Morozov & John Thornhill \nArtificial intelligence has rapidly emerged as a topic of immense interest not just for economists and entrepreneurs but also for observers and practitioners of international relations and geopolitics.\n \nWhile in 2017 Vladimir Putin famously proclaimed that whoever controls AI will eventually control the world\, today’s technology battle between just two players: the United States and China. Washington and Beijing boast two of the most powerful technology industries in the world\, each with impressive valuations and vast troves of data. Each pursues an original model: while the US continues with its more decentralized\, uncoordinated approach\, China \nleverages all the might of its central government to pursue an industrial strategy that puts AI at the center of its economic model.\n\nWhat are the implications of this centralization of global power over AI? And is there still hope that other actors – the EU\, Russia\, India – might still catch up and what are some of the strategies that might enable them to do so? And what are the implications if they do not? Is there a possible alternative model that does not presuppose strong governmental control over data and AI as in China but does not succumb to the temptations of what some have called “surveillance capitalism” as in the US? \nWe will hear from technology critic and journalist Evgeny Morozov and John Thornhill\, Innovation editor at the Financial Times. \n  \nRe-decentralising the internet\nSpeakers: Manon den Dunnen\, Ian Forrester\, Marta Arniani & Katja Bego\nThe internet isn’t where we want it to be. With power increasingly centralised in the hands of very few players\, citizens have little say in where we want the internet to go next. But challenging existing dynamics won’t be easy: we find ourselves caught in the crossfire between the dominant American models (driven by Big Tech) and the increasingly powerful Chinese model (where government reigns supreme). Is there scope to create a third\, European model\, where citizens and communities are in charge?\n\nIn this session\, we discuss alternative trust models for the internet. This session is part of the European Commission’s Next Generation Internet initiative. We will hear from Manon den Dunnen\, strategic specialist at the Dutch National Police\, Ian Forrester\, Chief Firestarter at BBC R&D and Marta Arniani\, innovation strategist and founder of Futuribile / Curating Futures. Chairing will be Katja Bego\, senior researcher at Nesta and coordinator of the Next Generation Internet Engineroom project. \n        \nDigital workers of the world\, unite?\nSpeakers: Izabella Kaminska\, James Bloodworth\, Karen Gregory & Frances Coppola. \nAs we mark Marx’ bicentennial\, is it time for the zero-hours workers of the world to unite? The parallels between the 19th century archetype of the proletariat and today’s (digital) precariat are stark. Is there such a big difference between the draconian factory owner and mandatory wristbands tracking workers’ every move? One-strike-and-you-are-out attendance policies vs a single two star review ending a gig economy workers’ chances of work?\n\nRapidly falling labour standards in the digital economy\, with young people finding it increasingly hard to find quality and meaningful work\, are quickly becoming the norm in the low-wage economy. In this session we discuss what the future of digital labour might look like (what will it be like to live and work in a world where our boss is an algorithm?)\, and which more human-centric alternatives we would like to see instead.\n\nWe will hear from Izabella Kaminska\, editor of the Financial Times’ Alphaville\, James Bloodworth\, author of “Hired: Six Months Undercover in Low-Wage Britain”\, economics journalist and blogger Frances Coppola and Karen Gregory\, Lecturer in Digital Sociology at the University of Edinburgh. \n   \n  \nA modern and progressive burger company\nSpeaker: Angela Nagle\n\nThere have been many essays and columns\, as well as multiple books written recently on the crisis of liberalism since Trump’s election and the broader rise of populism\, from writers like Edward Luce and Patrick Deneen. At the center of these debates as they have played out online\, in different political milieus on the left\, right and classical liberal center\, has been a consistent theme of progress. Angela is going to trace these debates through imagery\, slogans and memes as they’ve played out online and ask what these tell us about how the debate about the existence and nature of human progress is likely to play out.\nWe will hear from Angela Nagle\, author of “Kill All Normies” and essayist for The Atlantic\, Jacobin and The Baffler. \n  \nWho is the Internet for?\nSpeakers: Jillian York\, Marie Hicks\, Melody Patry\, Laura Kalbag\nThe internet now permeates almost every aspect of our lives\, affecting us all\, but the voices who get to shape the internet remain largely white and male.\n\nFailing to take different perspectives into account in the development of new technologies creates risks us perpetuating existing inequalities\,\, and also causes us to lose out on many radical reimaginings of how the internet could work better for a greater number of people.\n\nIt is often forgotten that most of the first computer programmers were women\, as were many of the most prescient critics of the power of Big Tech. #blacktwitter is a powerful force shaping dominant internet culture. Without the inputs from internet users with physical impairments we wouldn’t have the voice technology underpinning Siri or Alexa; there is a lot to be learned from the ways users from countries with more restricted internet access have come to shape their internets.\n\nIn this session\, we discuss how we can ensure the voices that shape the internet are more diverse\, and what a more intersectional future internet might look like. We will hear from Jillian York\, the Director for International Freedom of Expression at the Electronic Frontier Foundation\, author\, and activist\, as well as from Marie Hicks\, historian of technology and author of “Programmed Inequality”\, Melody Patry\, Advocacy Director at Access Now\, and Laura Kalbag\, designer and founder at Ind.ie and author of “Accessibility For Everyone”. \n         \nBuilding the people’s internet\nSpeaker: Aral Balkan\nThe Internet was meant to be for everyone. Instead\, today it is for corporations and governments. They use it to monitor our lives\, profile us\, and manipulate and exploit our behaviour for financial and political gain.\n\nWhat was supposed to be public space is now private property. On the Internet\, there are no parks\, only shopping malls. We’ve lost our public sphere. In its place we find surveillance capitalism\, the Trojan Horse gifted to humanity by Silicon Valley and its venture capitalists. This is the realm of the Googles and the Facebooks and the countless startups that want to either be them or be bought by them. Needless to say – and as graphically illustrated recently by Cambridge Analytica – this state of affairs has dire ramifications for our privacy\, freedom of speech\, and democracy. Thankfully\, another path forward is possible. Small bands of rebels like us are working to create ethical technologies that are free and open\, decentralised\, and interoperable. We are designing new everyday things that are owned and controlled by individuals\, not corporations or governments. Whether or not these alternatives exist (and are allowed to exist) will mean the difference between living in a democracy or a new digital feudalism. In this talk\, Aral will outline the problem with surveillance capitalism and explain how we can avoid it to build a People’s Internet starting right here in the EU. \nWe will hear from Aral Balkan\, cyborg rights activist\, designer and developer\, and co-founder at Ind.ie.

SUMMARY:DIGITAL ASSEMBLY 2018
DESCRIPTION:Annual event co-organised by the European Commission and the Bulgarian Presidency of the Council of the European Union. \nThe Digital Assembly 2018 is a forum for stakeholders to debate\, take stock and look ahead at how Europe and its partners around the world are preparing for the main digital policy challenges ahead. The Assembly will also present an opportunity for dialogue on how to reap the benefits for citizens and businesses in a rapidly changing world. \nVIEW THE WEB-STREAMING HERE! \n\nNGI @ Digital Assembly 2018\n“Towards a common European data space: Internet of Things\, the data economy and the Next Generation Internet” | Panel 2: The data economy and the Next Generation Internet (NGI) \nDate: 26/06/2018 (13.30-16.00) \nThe second part of the workshop will focus on the Next Generation Internet: how can we use the vast amount of data generated on the internet and turn it into useful knowledge and better services for the end-users? How can we use the latest technological developments to build an internet that serves us better\, an internet of humans? \nGreater availability of data and full transparency on the use of citizens’ data will allow them to take back control of the internet and make it a powerful tool to improve their lives in areas as diverse as health\, democracy\, environment and mobility. To exploit the power of data\, it will be important to master the underlying technologies\, including IoT\, AI and Blockchain. How can Europe embrace this technological revolution and shape the internet that we want? What is the role of the different stakeholders and how can we collaborate to make it happen? This second part will debate these questions and seek to define the key characteristics of the Next Generation Internet and the role that data will play to enable it. \nThe Internet and Artificial Intelligence (AI) provide great opportunities\, enabling digital transformation in most sectors of the economy and transforming our society: the way we live\, the way we work\, how we get informed and relate to each other. \nSeveral emerging key technologies will greatly contribute to Internet’s continuous evolution. One of them is Artificial Intelligence (AI)\, where recent advances show an enormous potential to turn the increasingly growing mass of available information into knowledge. This may lead to our seamless immersion in smarter physical and virtual environments powered by AI\, assisting people\, improving their lives and also benefiting the society at large. \nBut with the increasing level of autonomy of systems and algorithms\, there are also increasing challenges: about the transparency of algorithms and decision making processes; about the accountability and liability of AI systems. \nThe introduction of any new technology offers both great opportunities and challenges. It is essential for Europe to ensure the upcoming ‘digital era’ and ‘hyper-connected society’ is based on principles that are in line with our values like openness\, neutrality\, cooperation\, inclusion\, transparency\, protection of data and privacy. \nThe Next Generation Internet (NGI) initiative will ensure the developments of Artificial Intelligence and other key technology game changers contribute to making the future internet more human-centric. \nSpeakers \n\nMonique CALISTI (Martel Innovate\, Media & Marketing\, Switzerland)\, Moderator\nSébastien SORIANO (Chairman of ARCEP\, France)\, Panellist\nMarleen STIKKER (Waag\, Netherlands)\, Panellist\nHelmut LEOPOLD (AIT Austrian Institute of Technology\, Center for Digital Safety & Security\, Austria)\, Panellist\n\n[vc_tta_accordion active_section=”-1″ collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”MONIQUE CALISTI – moderator” tab_id=”1529929010270-67684d6c-dc89″][vc_single_image image=”25489″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]Dr. Monique Calisti\, Managing Director and Partner of Martel Innovate\, is an entrepreneur with profound experience in research and innovation management actively engaged in the international digital research and innovation scene.

SUMMARY:Next Generation Cities
DESCRIPTION:Strategies for Inclusive Digital Transformation\nURBAN CONFERENCE AMSTERDAM\nThe question ‘Who owns the city?’ has become increasingly relevant in a time where data and technology influence and alter cities all over the world. While new technologies can offer solutions to urban challenges\, their implementation often obstructs the inclusive character of digital cities. How can we design cities from which all urban stakeholders can benefit? \nDuring the full-day conference: Next Generation Cities\, we will explore the necessary (alternative) strategies for inclusive\, democratic and responsible urban digital transformation. How can you as a citizen\, designer\, policymaker or developer contribute to inclusive and fair cities? And how can we implement digital technologies in a responsible way? \nIn presentations and workshops\, experts from around the world will share and discuss their experience and strategies on how to implement algorithmic transparency; develop and safeguard digital rights; facilitate citizen-ownership of personal data; create data commons; organize collaboration between government and civic tech communities and much more. \nThis event is organized by Waag\, Amsterdam Smart City\, the CTO Office of the City of Amsterdam\, Pakhuis de Zwijger\, Maastricht University\, Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Metropolitan Solutions\, Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences and DI020. \nPROGRAMME\n9:00\nDoors open. \n10:00 – 12:00 \n– Welcome & introduction by moderator Farid Tabarki (Studio Zeitgeist) and aldermen responsible for art & culture and ict Touria Meliani (City of Amsterdam). \n– Panel discussion on the need for open\, fair and inclusive digital technology and infrastructures.

Olivier will give a state of play of the NGI initiative and the proposed next steps. He will explain how so-called ‘cascading funding’ under H2020 will support top-notch Internet researchers and innovators to help build the internet of tomorrow. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nQuestions & Answers \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10:30-11:30\nDebate: Should Open Data end where Data protection begins?\nIn an age when interactive technologies such as AR / VR transform our social interactions by redefining our digital identities\, how do we protect our personal data online?\nData openness and transparency are becoming a growing trend among tech industries and governments in view of creating a more human-centric and open Internet. Furthermore\, actions are being taken to restore the users’ trust in the Internet. While international cooperation and decentralization of governance over personal data is thought to give control back to the users\, how and when do we consider the openness to be too much?\nTaking into consideration that companies have recently aligned with GDPR\, data protection has to be taken into account at the early stages of creation\, or as it is called in tech\, “privacy by design”. Companies now have to adapt their policies to two conflicting trends: data openness and protection.Jean-Paul Sartre once said “my freedom ends where the others’ begin”. We ask you\, does open data end where data protection begins? \nModerator: Marta Arniani\, founder of Futuribile / Curating Futures \n\nMarta Arniani is a Horizon 2020 and technology social impact expert. She supports ecosystems of stakeholders and individual companies in designing open innovation projects\, strategies and events to stay ahead of the digital transformation. Her interests lie in Digital Social Innovation\, diversity and ethics in emerging technologies and innovation management. Marta curates a newsletter about tech and innovation social impact\, called futuribile / curating futures.\n\n\n11:30-11:40\nBreak\n\n\n11:40-12:20\nPresentation of NGI upcoming calls for proposals\nPresentation of ICT-25-2018-2020 “Interactive Technologies” and ICT-30-2019-2020 “An empowering\, inclusive Next Generation Internet” \nRehana Schwinninger-Ladak\, Head of Data Applications and Creativity Unit\, DG Connect\, European Commission\n \n\n\n\n\nRehana Schwinninger-Ladak was appointed Head of the Unit “Data Applications and Creativity” in January 2018.

SUMMARY:NGI WORKSHOP @ BILBAO IOT WEEK
DESCRIPTION:Next Generation Internet workshop: turning Europe into a service platform\nWhat kind of smart society do we want to live in? How can IoT players contribute to strengthen Europe’s society without falling into paradigms of extreme privatisation (US) and extreme surveillance (China)? We Europeans can envisage the Next Generation Internet as a coherent set of centralised protocols that can be operated in a fully decentralised way: a new conception of the techno-political landscape tuned to the reality of what is happening in every domain of human activity; to be supported\, assisted and guided by secure real time data streams of sensor input\, to bring big data\, AI and dynamic analytics into the heart of decision making and to eventually reform the EU as a platform of services for all. \nThe NGI Move project is organising meetups\, salons and co-creation workshops across Europe to discuss and make proposals about desirable European scenarios in the information technology domain. \nLearn more at: ngi.eu and awards.ngi.eu.

SUMMARY:NGI SALON @ KINNERNET
DESCRIPTION:A device of one’s own\nThis NGI Salon\, titled “A device of one’s own” aims firstly at raising the awareness of participants around their digital personas and their own relationship with their mobile devices. Secondly\, the reflection will serve as basis to elaborate alternative meaningful scenarios for the human-mobile device interaction. \nFOCUS OF THIS EVENT\nThe Salon “A device of one’s own” will take place at KINNERNET\, a wild-out-of the box\, irreverent\, disruptor event looking for innovation\, creativity and new ideas. On this third edition in Catalonia\, the event will feature over 120 innovators and creators from all disciplines (science\, technology\, business\, media\, education\, art and social work) and from all around the world (US\, Europe\, Israel and Asia). The mission is “to meet\, share and invent desirable future together”. \nThis annual networking event for innovative professionals provides the opportunity to gather informally and discuss topics of mutual interest. Kinnernet mixes in depth conversations\, debates\, workshops\, but also creative and artistics moments. All participants are equal and contributors and set up the programme. \n  \n \n  \nREVIEW NGI Salon: A device of one’s own\nOn June 2 KINNERNET Catalonia – a wild-out-of the box\, irreverent\, disruptor event looking for innovation\, creativity and new ideas – hosted a Salon titled “A device of one’s own”. The event\, part of NGI Move series of Salons\, was conceived and moderated by Marta Arniani (futuribile/curating futures). Get in touch at marta(at)futuribile.org if you would like to host a similar event. \nWe have an extremely intimate relationship with our own digital devices. Protected by their claimed neutral nature of objects\, they know things about us that we do not dare or bother sharing with our human peers. Meanwhile\, every single act we do through digital devices contributes to draw a partial picture of our identity. Enough to assign us a character designed through an accumulation of data\, a fictional persona composed by a sum of decontextualized elements. Through our unbalanced dialogue with devices\, we contribute to the building of extremely addictive\, clustered\, partial and numbing technology-mediated experiences. But what if we could shape the way our data and digital behaviour are employed so that they can generate meaningfulness for us? \nBy means of guided self-reflection and ideation exercises\, the Salon aimed at raising the awareness of participants around their digital personas and the meaningfulness of their digitalised behaviours. Through simple facilitation exercises attendees have been called to express quantifiable and qualitative aspects of their identity. When asked which of these elements was more important in defining their identity\, there was consensus around the irrelevance of goods possession and need\, which is instead a key component in digital targeting and profiling. \nThe scope of this first part of the salon was to led participants to realise to which extent quantification gives a distorted and limited vision of who we and our behaviours and beliefs. Technology works mainly through information accumulation. If data are the new oil\, then data providers (people) should be able to have a say about how their private data are invested. Participants have been asked to think of how to renegotiate their relationship with their mobile device\, and to come up with ways to make their experience less tailored and more meaningful for them. \n  \n \n  \nMost of the proposals focused on health and time/focus management. A participant working in health suggested that through biometrics mobile devices could understand when somebody is depressed and help her navigate out of that zone through suggestions and assistance. Whereas today devices work as a distraction\, they should support people’s focus: providing regular summaries of how long/how many times the person has been fully focused and on what; switching off automatically after a certain amount of hours of usage; assisting in scheduling the best moments to unplug or to focus on a specific task and providing supportive features (e.g. selecting music); analysing when the person is close to breakout and supporting the streamlining of her agenda. As it is structured today\, our relationship with mobile devices is utterly overwhelming and automation is mostly focused on aspects with little added value for people. \nIt was proposed to have more agency in deciding to which projects/initiatives contribute to with one’s personal data. With the conscience that the current data-extractive business models are not going to disappear from one day to another\, an evolution is sought: while the data automatically collected keep providing value to the corporations beyond the device and the apps\, can’t these data also be invested by the person in data-based endeavours that she considers valuable? For instance\, local open data projects\, health services and research\, circular economy\, information sources that the reader enjoys over others. Moreover\, a sort of programmed obsolescence for data profiling was suggested: if a profile must be retained\, then it should be temporary and contingent to the person actual status. Identities are more fluid then the way technology depicts them. \nFinally\, another strong point raised concerned the reinforcement of human feedback and interaction. Many expressed the need to protect their domestic environment and make it a space for meaningful human interactions. Due to the expressive limitation of text – which in the experience of participants mostly replaced verbal exchanges\, more interactive/multidimensional means to increase the quality of conversation are sought. Interestingly\, technology intensifies negative/aggressive/hate debates but fails at amplifying good and meaningful conversations. Measuring/sensing the emotional response and feedback of the communication receiver\, or switching off when the person is having a face to face conversation so that it could focus on who is in front\, were among the possible features suggested. Automatised tours outside one’s filter bubble were proposed. \n“Take care of me like I take care of you: charge me\, update me\, protect me” – Main takeaways\n• It was strongly stated that devices must help people live better (accordingly to their own standards) and increase their IQ\, surely not replace people’s agency by automatically acting on behalf of their (artificially presumed) will. \n• Citizens should be able to intentionally invest their personal data in initiatives they care about. The return on investment is a positive impact on the world or on their everyday life. \n• There should be a programmed obsolescence for personal data. \n• The reinforcement of positive (enriching\, proactive and respectful) human feedback and interaction is very needed. \n

SUMMARY:NGI Workshop  @ IWDK
DESCRIPTION:THE NEXT GENERATION INTERNET: BUILDING AN INTERNET FOR HUMANS\nAN INTERNET OF HUMAN VALUES RESILIENT. TRUSTWORTHY. SUSTAINABLE.\n \nKEY TAKE-AWAYS\n\nSustainable Internet Development\nInternet for Humans\nPrivacy and Ethics\nVision Workshop\n\nThe workshop will focus on creating visions for the Next Generation Internet.\nThe overall mission of the Next Generation Internet initiative is to re-imagine and re-engineer the Internet for the third millennium and beyond. We envision the information age will be an era that brings out the best in all of us. We want to enable human potential\, mobility and creativity at the largest possible scale – while dealing responsibly with our natural resources. In order to preserve and expand the European way of life\, we shape a value-centric\, human and inclusive Internet for all. \nThese important ambitions need a solid technical foundation to build on. The legendary robustness of the Internet must become actual reality in the Next Generation Internet. A massive global fleet of connected devices is on its way to enhance and control our homes\, factories\, offices and vehicles. Technology is embedded in concrete\, circling in space and is increasingly entering the intimacy of our human bodies. The Next Generation Internet has to be both highly adaptive and unrelentingly resilient. Whatever companies or parts of the network go down by some natural or other disaster\, the effects on the rest of us should be close to zero. \nThere is another essential dimension to trust\, which lies above physical availability. We need a transparent technological environment\, that is completely trustworthy. The architecture\, governance and policies structure how entire societies and economies interact. By design it should protect free speech and private enterprise and much more. The Next Generation Internet is to be designed to avoid any bias or systematic abuse of global trust in the Internet. It shall be a true global commons\, rising above international politics and competition. It will guarantee the safety of citizens and strengthen the health and autonomy of our markets and societies across borders. \nThe enduring success of the Internet lies in permission-free innovation\, openness and interoperability. The Next Generation Internet is set up to empower\, to unlimit our choices. It fosters diversity and decentralisation\, and grows the potential for disruptive innovation. This extends far beyond the technical realm. The Next Generation Internet will achieve a sustainably open environment for our cultures and economies\, celebrating our values and promoting creativity and well-being. \nSPEAKERS\nMirko Presser\, Associate Professor Aarhus University\nRob van Kranenburg\, Founder of IoT Council\nAnja Bechmann\, Associated Professor Aarhus University \n  \n \n
